There is, indeed, a similarity of rather silly and infantile behaviour
between the two, but based on previous behaviours, she is more likely
to be one
of NOT-HAM, CANDID or Leigh Preece.

Whoever she is, who would wish to advertise themselves as such a
a fool as to repeatedly shout insults from the sideline?

For once, Beany, you couldn't be more correct. Your posts represent
a perfect example of exactly the kind of intolerance and LACK of
"civilised behaviour" that has permeated some parts of "Hammery"
(interesting word, BTW... Is it in Webster's yet?)

1. Webster is a Yank dictionary and not an English one, so the
question is irrelevant.

2. Dictionaries do not prescribe they merely describe so the
question is, once again, irrelevant.

3. If it seems that I am being intolerant towards those who are not
Radio Hams by any stretch of the imagination, then, good. That
was and is my intention. We should guard jealously the privileges
that we have and stand apart from those who are simple appliance
operators and simple-minded CBers and who are indistinguishable
from the man-in-the-street with his GSM phone or CB walkie-talkie..

4. That said, I warmly encourage, as I have always done, everybody
without exception and without prejudice to exert themselves to
join our ranks. There is no snobbery in a wish to maintain standards.

5. Radio Hammery is a technical pursuit and I wish for it to always
remain so.

6. Whoever you are, I am critical of you for originating personal
remarks. There is no call for such. Ham Radio has traditions of
international gentlemanliness which seem to be lost on you. I am
not familiar with the Yankland licensing scheme; Is "KC7GR" some
form of CB licence?

Gareth,

Have you not realised that 99.9% of the readers in this ng don't give a
toss what you are posting ? The other 0.1 % are still laughing at your

As are the dsp, engineering, maths, scouting etc groups that have also
rejected his moronic rantings and personal attacks. It must be lonely out
there for him.

Not so Hully, the employment fairy has been very kind to him.

"One group of people who claim to be of the standard of
Radio Hams but who are in reality nothing more than an
apology for the failure of a CBer are those class B
licensees who falsely proclaimed that they were against
the use of a Morse Test to control access to the HF
bands, until, that is, a test was introduced at their
intellectual level, the intellectual level of 6-year-olds. "

Hold on a mo. I'm a class B licence holder - G8LIR, and have been for,
oh about 30 years I think. My main interest was in fast scan ATV on 70
Cms and 23cms, and with a small team we competed in many ATV contests,
setting new (and I think unbroken) records. All our equipment was home
built - yes I do mean ALL - including narrow band ATV receivers
utilising inline cavities and integrating receivers to subtract noise
and reveal lost images when only a weak sync pulse was available. We
also DESIGNED and built the linear amplifiers using 4cx250's in push
pull, with 2kv on the anodes and tuneable cavities (not copied
designs). And, oh yes, we designed filters using laplace transforms to
calculate the correct vaues for the inductors, wound them ourselves and
tuned then with second hand spectrum analysers.

Now to me, that level of technical expertise speaks to a certain
intellectual level over a 6 year olds.

I was considering returning to the hobby, but frankly the view in this
FAQ has put me off.

Anyone care to comment ?
